I find yalls situation interesting. Feel sorry for you Afrikaners but then I think your fate was inevitable with yall being such a minority in such a troubled realm with such lesser aspects.

Good to see that, though the perspective might be rather dull, can just hope the best for that community and that they won't be overrun...

You're mistaken. Until fairly recently (1980's) there was nothing "inevitable" about the fate of the Afrikaners. I see no reason why we things couldn't have continued indefinitely even if it meant having to establish a white "bantustan" somewhere and relinquishing parts of the country where it clearly didn't make demographic sense to stay on.

The fate of the Afrikaners (and to a lesser extent the English speaking whites) wasn't determined by anything the blacks in SA did. Their fate was determined by what the US and EU countries did combined with treachery from within own ranks.

And do not forget that the USA first wanted us to rid Angola from the Cubans,because the USA could not be seen to help.
Than later the USA screwed us in the eye demanding us to leave. They did the same to Saddam.
If the USA is your friend,please do not bend for this friend

When the white Southern U.S. pro-white politicians left over from before the civil rights act lost power/influence in the U.S. South Africa's white government days were numbered, it was inevitable then that support would quickly evaporate as it surely did sadly.

The U.S. policy wise is, at least on the democrat side, fully infiltrated by the worst order of anti-white, pro-multiculturalism ideologues whom whenever possible will prop up some pathetic leftist dribble such as SA's current government and scum filth such as Mandela. Have no delusions there were plenty in the U.S. that would and were perfectly fine with Mandela rotting in his cell till death, it was when such individuals aged and retired that continuation of support dried up and the new, more progressive American left opened the cell door so to speak.

Watched a documentary. I have respect for these guys.

It's not some white nationalist wet dream but for Afrikaners exclusively to preserve their culture. They keep Anglos out too. :thumb001:


All jobs, from management to manual labour, are filled by Afrikaners only; non-Afrikaner workers are not permitted. "We do not want to be governed by people who are not Afrikaners", said Potgieter, the previous chairman. "Our culture is being oppressed and our children are being brainwashed to speak English".

If only we Acadians could do that. But I guess we are better than other ethnic groups for keeping our wealth in the community.

And they don't engage in conflict with other groups, they don't hate, so they are preserving their culture not at the expense of others.


In June 2007, the Afrikaner enclave received a visit from the Coloured community of Eersterust, outside Pretoria.[24] Both groups met to discuss community development and discussed methods of self-governance. According to visitors "The reception was good" and "We definitely learned from the experience and we experienced no racial tension." The community of Orania gave a donation to the community of Eersterust in support of their nursery school.

They are also a green town:


Green (Environment friendly)

Orania is a town that does its bit for the environment. In a certain way Orania is the most environment friendly town in the country.

* People recycle their own garbage by sorting and placing the garbage into five different trash cans.
* All new houses must have solar-boilers for hot water.
* Various people in the town are looking at ways to switch over to green electricity.
* In the town there is a number of different ecological buildings, for example a straw bale house with a living roof.
* In the near future earthships (aardskepe)[9] will be built in Orania.


I think this video slanders the town, making them look like racists, but they have distanced themselves from racists.


In January 2010, Afrikaans daily newspaper Beeld published an article by Frans de Klerk, chief executive of Orania, in which he sets out what he views as the successes of Orania.[17] De Klerk also distanced the town from racist organizations using Orania to further their own causes.

There is also another similar town called Kleinfontein.
